Miles Teller stars in this drama based on the life of professional boxer Vinny Pazienza. Shortly after winning the junior middleweight world title, Vinny Pazienza (Teller) is involved in a near-fatal car accident which leaves him with multiple injuries including a broken neck. Told he will never walk or fight again, Vinny is fitted with a metal neck brace which he must wear for several months. However, defying doctor's orders, he continues to follow his training regime and, with the help of trainer Kevin Rooney (Aaron Eckhart), Vinny remains determined to prove his doubters wrong and vows to make a triumphant return to the ring to reclaim the world title he relinquished one year earlier.

audio in italiano18 anni dopo elwood blues (aykroyd) esce di prigione. suo fratello jake (belushi) e' morto e la loro orchestra non c'e' piu'. se n'e' andato anche curtis, loro padre spirituale, lasciando un figlio poliziotto duro e puro. insieme con un nuovo partner, il gioviale mighty mack mcteer (goodman) e con buster, orfanello di 10 anni (bonifant), elwood si rimette in marcia. dovra' fare i conti con la mafia russa. tentativo parzialmente riuscito di continuare un film di culto che nel 1980, con l'aereo piu' pazzo del mondo inauguro' il genere catacomico: ludico, demenziale, goliardico, frenetico, buffonesco, tutto ma non rassicurante e mistificatorio. quel che c'e' di divertente e' gia' visto e quel che ha di nuovo non diverte. c'e' tanta musica, d'accordo. troppa.
Wild Wild West, directed by Barry Sonnenfeld (Men in Black, Get Shorty), was one of the box-office smashes of the summer of 1999 but was raked by critics and embraced by audiences. Based on the 1960s TV adventure show that starred Robert Conrad, this film re-imagined Secret Service agent James West as Will Smith, adding Oscar-winner Kevin Kline as his sidekick, agent-inventor Artemus Gordon. President Ulysses S. Grant puts West and Gordon on the trail of malign genius (and former Confederate soldier) Dr. Arliss Loveless (Kenneth Branagh) in a story about racism, partnership and world domination. The special effects are lavish, even garish, but not all that special; they're not enough to elevate a mundane and familiar plot. Even Branagh, playing a man who only exists from the waist up--literally--can't find the juice in this lumbering affair. Still, the fast-talking team of Smith and Kline is a nimble one. Smith's affable charm and Kline's subversive wit win many points, though not nearly enough.--Marshall Fine
Moby Dick
One of the most frightening horror films of recent years Absentia is the critically-acclaimed multi-award winning breakthrough film from director of Oculus. Tricia's husband Daniel has been missing for seven years and with the support of her sister Callie she finally declares him legally dead 'in absentia'. As Tricia tries to move on with her life she becomes haunted by terrifying visions. Callie meanwhile is drawn to an ominous tunnel near the house with links to other unexplained disappearances. Does the key to Daniel's fate lie in the cold darkness of the tunnel and could the horrific truth be something far worse than death? Special Features: Audio Commentary: Director/ Producer Mike Flanagan and Producers Morgan Peter Brown Joe Wicker and Justin Gordon Director Mike Flanagan and Cast Members Katie Parker Courtney Bell Dave Levine and Doug Jones 'Absentia: A retrospective' documentary Camera test teaser Deleted Scenes
Based on Thomas Harris's novel, Jonathan Demme's terrifying adaptation of Silence of the Lambs contains only a couple of genuinely shocking moments (one involving an autopsy, the other a prison break). The rest of the film is a splatter-free visual and psychological descent into the hell of madness, redeemed astonishingly by an unlikely connection between a monster and a haunted young woman. Anthony Hopkins is extraordinary as the cannibalistic psychiatrist Dr Hannibal Lecter, virtually entombed in a subterranean prison for the criminally insane. At the behest of the FBI, agent-in-training Clarice Starling (Jodie Foster) approaches Lecter, requesting his insights into the identity and methods of a serial killer named Buffalo Bill (Ted Levine). In exchange, Lecter demands the right to penetrate Starling's most painful memories, creating a bizarre but palpable intimacy that liberates them both under separate but equally horrific circumstances. Demme, a filmmaker with a uniquely populist vision (Melvin and Howard, Something Wild), also spent his early years making pulp for Roger Corman (Caged Heat) and he hasn't forgotten the significance of tone, atmosphere and the unsettling nature of a crudely effective close-up. Much of the film, in fact, consists of actors staring straight into the camera (usually from Clarice's point of view), making every bridge between one set of eyes to another seem terribly dangerous. --Tom Keogh, Amazon.com On the DVD: On disc one, the film itself looks clinically sharp in a faultless widescreen (1.85:1) anamorphic transfer, while the Dolby 5.1 soundtrack makes the most of the chilling sound effects and Howard Shore's masterfully understated score. Unlike the Region 1 Criterion Collection, however, there is no audio commentary at all. On the second disc, the all-new hour-long "making-of" documentary features contributions from the screenwriter, producer, composer, costume designer, make-up effects people and even the moth wrangler ("There were no moths harmed in the filming!") as well as Ted Levine (Buffalo Bill) and Anthony Hopkins, who talks at length about creating Lecter. Conspicuous by their absence are Jonathan Demme and Jodie Foster. Aside from the usual trailers and stills gallery there are 21 deleted scenes, many of which are not whole scenes but deleted excerpts, a promotional featurette made in 1991 and an outtakes reel that proves the cast really did have fun making this scary picture. For those who want to scare all their friends, there's also an answerphone message from Anthony Hopkins "in character". --Mark Walker

The ranks of fictional genius gumshoes were joined by former San Francisco detective Adrian Monk (Tony Shalhoub) in the summer of 2002, and he is indeed a welcome addition. Cable channel USA Network introduced Monk, a bright comedy-drama series about an obsessive-compulsive sleuth drummed out of police work following the murder of his wife and a subsequent spike in his overwhelming neuroses. Once a rising star in the homicide department, the twitchy savant is still valuable to Captain Stottlemeyer (Ted Levine), who reluctantly calls on Monk to solve difficult, high-profile murders of judges, billionaires, police informants, and famous attorneys. Monk's talent for finding clues and seeing the big picture in criminal investigations makes him a force to reckon with, but his many phobias (germs, heights, asymmetry, and much, much else) aggravate Stottlemeyer and make Monk completely dependent on a long-suffering assistant, Sharona (Bitty Schram), a single mom who functions as Dr. Watson to Monk's Sherlock Holmes. Each of the 12 episodes included in Monk: The Complete First Season is a delightful mix of clever whodunit puzzler, neurotic schtick, and deepening relationships. Among the latter, the bond between Monk and Sharona is most touching, as the platonic friends, sometimes aghast at how involved they are in each other's lives, surprise themselves with the breadth of their trust and commitment. In "Mr. Monk Goes to the Asylum," Monk is forced into a stay at a mental hospital, where a murderer has convinced him he's crazy; it's Sharona who makes her boss realize he's not. In "Mr. Monk and the Earthquake," it's Monk who rushes to Sharona's aid when he deduces that a lying friend is about to kill her. In almost every episode, Monk is confronted with a phobic limitation he must overcome in order to save the day. The question is whether he will heal enough, one day, to re-join his old squad. For the sake of Monk's winning formula and fans, one has to hope such good news never comes to pass. --Tom Keogh
